After struggling a few hours on making my app detect this QRCode:
I realized that the problem was the in the QRCode appearance. After inverting the colors, the detection was working perfectly..
Is there a way to make Vision API detect the first QRCode? I tried to enable all symbologies but it did not work. I guess it is possible because the app QR Code Reader detects it.
I improved googles example app "barcode-reader" to detect both inverted colored barcodes and regular ones.
here is a link to googles example app:
https://github.com/googlesamples/android-vision/tree/master/visionSamples/barcode-reader
I did so by editing "CameraSource" class,
package: "com.google.android.gms.samples.vision.barcodereader.ui.camera"
.
I added a parameter: private boolean isInverted = false;
and changed function void setNextFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera)
:
void setNextFrame(byte[] data, Camera camera) {
synchronized (mLock) {
if (mPendingFrameData != null) {
camera.addCallbackBuffer(mPendingFrameData.array());
mPendingFrameData = null;
}
if (!mBytesToByteBuffer.containsKey(data)) {
Log.d(TAG,
"Skipping frame. Could not find ByteBuffer associated with the image " +
"data from the camera.");
return;
}
mPendingTimeMillis = SystemClock.elapsedRealtime() - mStartTimeMillis;
mPendingFrameId++;
if (!isInverted){
for (int y = 0; y < data.length; y++) {
data[y] = (byte) ~data[y];
}
isInverted = true;
} else {
isInverted = false;
}
mPendingFrameData = mBytesToByteBuffer.get(data);
// Notify the processor thread if it is waiting on the next frame (see below).
mLock.notifyAll();
}
}
